NYCFC at Minnesota United 4/13/19 - MLS Picks & Predictions

Minnesota United are having a really great season so far, and even though they have lost some matches, their presence on the offensive end is tremendous. They will now have a theoretically easy job on Saturday when they will host a struggling NYCFC side.

Minnesota United (3-2-0) are coming into this match after a solid but lucky performance on the road against the Red Bulls. Minnesota United had a two-goal lead before their opponents scored a consolation goal. Minnesota United have scored in all five matches so far, also scoring twice in four. They are sitting at the 6th spot of the league table with 9 points, one ahead of Sporting KC and one behind FC Dallas and Houston. NYCFC (0-1-4) are having a season to forget, as they have not won a single match so far. The truth is that four of their five matches were draws, but still. In their last match they split the points in a goal-less draw at home against Montreal Impact. NYCFC have conceded multiple goals n three of their five matches so far. They are stuck at the penultimate spot of the Eastern Conference with 4 points, just as many as the Red Bulls and New England above them.

Minnesota United beat NYCFC by 1-2 at home last season, but NYCFC had won by 1-3 at home the season before that. I really like Minnesota United this season, even in their losses they are really good up front. NYCFC are far from convincing, so I will back the home team here.
